Chapter 185: The New Engine of the Universe(2/2)
Twenty sets are more than 20,000 kilowatts!
The company originally had three sets of supercomputers. As the center of the global network, plus various laboratories and factories, the power consumption is already amazing. Beijing's power supply department has long said hello to Huanyu Company, saying that their power supply is always insufficient, Huanyu Company is like an electric tiger. It doesn't have enough power supply. I hope the company can control the electricity use.
So, the company took out the focused solar cells just after testing.
In Beijing, the performance of this solar cell cannot be achieved at all. It can barely achieve the power generation of 60 watts per square meter of solar panels. It only exerts 26% of the performance of the battery.
In order to fully supply the power consumption of supercomputers, the company has renovated all buildings, laid more than one million square meters of solar panels, and built a special inverter power station to convert DC power into AC power. In addition to being used by supercomputers, the company also reduced the power consumption of the ground from the public power grid by about half.
Yang Guoli doesn't even feel dizzy now, he's already numb. For just a few months, he feels that his nerves have been fully trained. He won't be surprised to see anything.
Although millions of square meters of silicon solar panels mean hundreds of millions of dollars of investment, Yang Guoli did not consider its value at all.
He won't think about these things anymore.
He has accepted the arguments of his colleagues. Universal is a place to create miracles.
He also talked to the installer with the staff about how to improve the performance of solar panels and whether he could install a set in his own home.
Yang Guoli, who was reborn, devoted himself to his work.
He saw that the fiber optic cable of supercomputers reached dozens of kilometers. Engineers even tried to use lasers to transmit information between chips. However, many experiments failed, so they had to move it to the laboratory and no longer used it as a practical application.
He saw that each chip was equipped with two megabytes of memory.
In addition, there are other hierarchical memory calls. The total amount of memory equipped by a single set of supercomputers reaches 80 b!
And even more exaggeratedly, these memory are manufactured at an ultra-high process level. In Pentium chips, these memory is used for cache, and the bandwidth of the memory chip has also been expanded to increase to a bandwidth of g.
He saw that even the hard disk array uses a memory-simulated virtual hard disk, forming a super luxurious 120 DIN B array!
Yang Guoli felt that his psychological quality was really good. He saw so many shocking things, but he was calm and calm. He still had the leisure to guess how high the super computer could reach.
I heard that the supercomputers in the United States have exceeded one trillion times. The company will never be inferior to them by using such a supercomputer system built at any cost.
Even if it reaches a speed of ten trillion times, Yang Guoli will not be surprised.
Although the super-grade ground components are used, the cost is immeasurable, and the construction of supercomputers is faster than expected. Since there is no need to wait for components, it only took a year for the Chaotian plan to start the project and complete the construction of the first supercomputer.
The newly built computer center building has thirty floors on the ground and five floors underground. Each floor has a set of supercomputers. There is also room for free for the control and management department to use. Some floors are also empty, leaving room for the addition of new supercomputers in the future.
Yang Guoli's work was completed very quickly. He wanted to design the software system used by the scientific research department, which only needed to use interactive programming software launched by Universal Company.
It took him only half a year to complete his first step.
What is left is how to design corresponding software for scientific researchers in specific research projects and design. This is a lifelong work. There is no end to scientific research, and he only needs to work hard to do his best. He can do his best.
On December 3, 1994, the hardware engineers repeatedly checked the system and signaled that it would be officially started.
Supercomputer room. Twenty air conditioners are running at full speed, making the room as cold as the Arctic.
But after half an hour of turning on the computer, the room temperature returned to normal room temperature - the heat generated by the supercomputer system is too high!
The test speed shocked everyone - five trillion times. It is more than three times faster than the fastest supercomputer system at present!
The first thing that benefits from this supercomputer system is the discipline of optoelectronics.
In the laboratory, Xiao Qiang suppressed his inner tension, wore a full set of sterile clothes, and watched excitedly as the birth of the first fully automatic laboratory in China.
After simple training by Yang Guolidi, the researchers quickly learned the general experimental interface.
They clicked on an optical component test program module.
They don't need to operate those complex instruments anymore. The computer drives the robotic arm. The electronic components are placed inside the instrument and connected accurately into place.
The scientists checked the corresponding experimental items on the interface options, and needed to obtain the data and fill in the calculation equations.
Then, they clicked the confirmation button.
The current takes less than a second to pass. As soon as the arc of light was seen in the naked eye, the instrument measurement data had been transmitted through the optical fiber to the supercomputer system.
Before Xiao Qiang could react, a full screen of calculation results and detailed map data had already popped up on the screen in front of the scientist.
"It's over," Xiao Qiang asked foolishly.
His voice seemed a little muffled under the sterile wardrobe.
"It's over! The experiment has been completed, exactly the same as the data we obtained before!" The researchers were also astonished like him, and were stunned for a moment before jumping up ecstatically. Several researchers hugged each other tightly through the sterile object.
This experiment requires massive amounts of local data.
The experiment itself does not take much time, but after obtaining the data, the researchers still have to calculate, compare, and screen for a long time to truly complete the experiment. It will take them a month!
But now, when the instrument just obtained the experimental data, less than a minute later, they got a perfect experimental report!
Although not all experimental results can be obtained so quickly. Some calculations, even supercomputers will have to count for one or two months. However, from this system, they can complete two or three experiments in a day, and at most more than ten experiments!
The research they can complete in one year will exceed the research results of previous years or even ten years!
Supercomputer systems, like a powerful engine, have once again added a right-hand assistant to the world's technological forefront at a faster speed than before.
Xiao Qiang raised his head and looked at the roof through the goggles.
His hands were clenched into fists.
Universal Company will rush forward in an unrivaled way and pull all its opponents off!
A man jumped onto him, which was Yang Guoli, who usually respected him as a god. At this moment, he smiled like a child. Xiao Qiang was hammered and beaten on his body, and shouted.
A man jumped over, hugged Xiao Qiang and shouted, which was Professor Zeng Youquan. He was always serious. He was smiling and was just talking. There was a little tears.
Other researchers also came over. They hugged Xiao Qiang and shouted loudly. In the laboratory, they couldn't hear clearly what they were saying...
Chapter completed!
